If through inadvertance or otherwise a corporation does not comply with Section 881 of the Insurance Code, or with Sections 201.5, 202, 2105, 2106, 2106.5, and 2107 of the Corporations Code when any of such sections is applicable, any corporation lawfully engaged in the insurance business in this state may bring an action for judicial relief against such corporation by means of any remedy afforded by law. Such action may be based upon any of the grounds by reason of which the commissioner could or would have denied application for approval of the corporate name of the noncomplying corporation. In such an action the court may order such corporate defendant to adopt a new name or an operating name, when permissible, acceptable to both the Secretary of State and the commissioner, by filing a certificate of amendment or by filing an amended statement and designation with the Secretary of State.
